When you say mafia you mean gangster use to love films like Godfather, scarface, casino, my favourite Goodfellas and to some extent Heat.
Layer cake is a good movie as is Score with Dr Miro.
Never watched Sopranos or Narco.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Joe Pasquale gravel voiced tough guy.
Bronx Tale is a great movie and made me think that stereotyping Italians as gangsters who are criminals is not a good thing. A real man is someone who works hard, looks after his family and loved ones, stays within the law and maintains his good name.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Old school: Paul Muni, George Raft, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, and the absolute A#1 Edward G. Robinson....Robet DeNiro wishes he was Robinson!
A couple of shouts to Charles Dierkop, William Forsyth, Tony Sirico, James Gandolfini, Joe Mantegna, Richard Castellano, James Caan, Marlon Brando, Ray Liotta, and Steve Schirippa.
I think Gabriel Byrne and Albert Finney did great in Miller's Crossing which is underrated.
Liotta played his character brilliantly in Goodfellas. He starts laughing hysterically at inappropriate moments, genius.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Millers Crossing was excellent - great soundtrack too.
Bronx Tale one of my all time favourites. Still one of the best sick days I ever pulled from work - rented two films from Blockbuster . Bronx Tale and Carlitos Way. What a day.
Vincent Pastore sprung to mind when seeing thread title. Pesci. De Niro and Steve Van Zandt I suppose.
Love gangster movies if done right.
Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
Not sure what his birth certificate says but Christopher Walken gets honorable mention for King of New York . In a single role Stephen Graham was superb as Al Capone in 'Boardwalk Empire'.
Old school gangster movies are GOLD.....the original Scarface with Paul Muni...so much better than Pacino's and whatever the fuck Diego Luna is coming out with![]()
Cagney, Robinson, Bogey, they all seemed like actual tough guys not some fancy pants acting school dandy.....granted Robinson was so not used to guns that he blinked every time he shot his pistol lol. But his manner of speech, his actions......the same goes for Bela Lugosi as Dracula, the dude embodied the character and so every character since then has been playing the ACTOR of the role rather than just the role itself that's how honest their performances were.
And George Raft.....what a cool customer that dude was!
